Central high-value zone = inside the penalty area and in the central channel (the six-yard-box width extended out to the penalty spot) — the “danger zone” where chance quality is highest. Distances in metres from goal. Big chance = a shot worth ≥ 0.30 xG (there is no separate big-chance flag in the shot feed). Shot data: FotMob per-shot xG · WhoScored locations.
